I am hoping that they can biopsy correctly. No one seems to take this seriously, unfortunately. Any great doctors in North Jersey?<br/><br/>

When I was ten I began having symptoms of dermatitis herpetaformis but it wasn't until I was twenty-one and in the USAF that a service doctor diagnosed DH and prescribed Dapsone for it. The Dapsone was like a miracle for me at the time but I have now been on a gluten-free diet (thanks to my wife) for the last 25 years and I haven't taken Dapsone or had DH since. I have three children, one of whom shows signs of gluten intolerance. Thanks for the great website and all the good info. I wish there had been knowledge like this in 1960!<br/><br/>

The culture was taken directly from the blisters. I have since discovered I have celiac and do my best to avoid any gluten, but when I do, the lesions always appear. I have always thought it was a misdiagnosis but I couldn't find any documentation to back up my theory.  Thank you for this post, I can take this to my doctor and have the lesions properly diagnosed.<br/><br/>

I found this site and references to dermatitis herpetiformis, so I printed all of the information and went to my PCP asking to be tested for celiac.  The nurse practitioner there literally laughed at me and said I shouldn't be trying to diagnose myself.  I then took the information to the new dermatologist and the PA laughed at me.  I requested the physician to come look at my rash and he immediately said I think you have dermatitis herpetiformis.  I started on dapsone two days ago and have seen a great improvement in my rash.  Being proactive about my care is the ONLY thing that provided me with the answer I was looking for.  If you feel you have dermatitis herpetiformis, I would definitely urge you to do your research and keep looking until you an find someone to listen to you!<br/><br/>
